Boom Box Post Internship Program

Boom Box Post is proud to provide an internship program for aspiring sound editors, designers, and mixers.

Each internship experience is four months in duration and occurs seasonally starting approximately on January 1st (winter), May 1st (summer), or September 1st (fall).

Internship interviews must be conducted in-person for all Los Angeles area applicants. Applicants from outside the greater Los Angeles area may request an interview via Google Hangouts.
